[SYD] Northern beaches meet 31/10/2009 - pics!
Met up with JMH1983, Taymaishu and janus77 on saturday - was great meeting up with you guys, should arrange something again soon
Took some nice pics at palm beach, then gave my camera to tay who took some more. tay has a good eye for photography I don't like thumbnails so this post will be pic-heavy. Please don't quote this post when replying, thx! Injen intake JMH1983 polishing some dust (?) off his freshly detailed car Taymaishu saw his car for the first time from the passenger seat, saw dirty bits and had to clean it. Mini photoshoot at palm beach Tay's photos Last edited by chylld; 11-01-2009 at 04:07 PM.. |

let me know if you want print-quality versions of any of them or if you want to see the rejects! |

Mine looks very nice and shiny But that's cause I washed it about 10 minutes before leaving to meet you guys!
Have to do it again soon. The road out to West Head (did it yesterday afternoon) is completely repaved and is just so smooth - the smoothest road i've EVER driven on. |

Great shots guys! Love to join you when I get back in Sydney.
Abundance of A-class driving roads down here, but no one to go driving with..... :-(

Glad to have you aboard, and of course, more than welcome when we do some cruises. It seems we're getting a bit of a Northern Beaches Posse happening! So we have another WRX to BMW 1 series convert (me included). There are so many of us around! Where on the beaches are you? |

Definitely a good idea to wash your car before a meet, especially if someone's bringing a camera! Look at the 4th photo above of jmh1983 in front of his car; the reflections of the tree are actually higher contrast than the tree itself... Cruiser: keep us updated with your delivery and we'll make sure it gets a proper welcoming party |

Top guy, if anyone wants a really good full detail he charges $160 for a black car (costs more due to requiring a glaze) and gives the best job possible. He actually does all of Col Crawfords cars, i am guessing the dealer delivery first clean.

Ah...I read the Col Crawford thing and then saw that I was about to think he did the Dealer-installed Swirl Marks!!!
Mind you, CC need to have a good detailer - considering 95% of their cars are left out in the lot overnight and in rain/hail/snow/hurricane. After the big dust storm, they didn't clean the cars for a week! |
